Chapter 358 Hulk VS Goddess Statue

The Statue of Liberty is 46 meters high, 92 meters plus the base, has a total weight of 225 tons, and is made of metal. The entire bronze statue uses 120 tons of steel as the skeleton, 80 tons of copper sheets as the outer skin, and is assembled and fixed on the bracket with 300,000 rivets.

The statue of the goddess wears ancient Greek-style clothing and a radiant crown. The seven pointed rays symbolize the seven continents of the world. The right hand holds aloft the torch symbolizing freedom. The left hand is holding a legal book with the words "July 4, 1776" engraved on the cover, symbolizing the "Declaration of Independence" signed on this day; under the feet are broken handcuffs, shackles and chains, symbolizing breaking away from the constraints and restraint of tyranny. freedom, and slavery, long since abolished.

It can be said that the Statue of Liberty is America's symbol of freedom and is also an important symbol in its external publicity. Every year, a large number of tourists come from thousands of miles away to see the true appearance of the Statue of Liberty.

However, all this is based on the fact that the goddess is a motionless statue in the past.

When this huge steel and bronze statue came to life, the freedom and democracy that the American government talked about no longer mattered.

Because the 46-meter-tall bronze statue itself is a huge threat to the American government.

I believe that Americans more than a hundred years ago would never have imagined that the Statue of Liberty, which they used to promote their national pride, would one day truly be free.

…

"Guys, if anyone can tell me at this time that everything happening in front of me is just an illusion, I will be very grateful to you."

Standing at the best vantage point on Manhattan Island, just across the water from the Statue of Liberty, Banner swallowed a mouthful of water and murmured.

"This is an illusion..."

Turning his head to look at Dr. Banner, Tony replied cooperatively.

"Really? I knew how the goddess statue could be..."

Hearing Tony's answer, Banner made a happy expression on his face.

"It would be nice if..."

However, before he could finish his self-deception, Tony filled in the second half of what he said in the next second.

"I appreciate your humor, Dr. Banner, but in the current situation, I think there are more important things waiting for us to do than humor."

Reaching out and taking off the shield on the motorcycle, Steve said with a solemn expression while looking at the resurrected goddess statue on Liberty Island.

Liberty Island is not empty. As an important tourist attraction in New York, the Statue of Goddess is not only a statue, but also has spiral stairs and elevators installed inside for tourists to climb. However, these trails, originally designed to attract tourists, have now become deadly threats.

Steve couldn't tell how many tourists were still stranded in the resurrected goddess statue.

"I'm not trying to be humorous."

Hearing Steve's words, Banner couldn't help but whisper to himself. However, aware of the seriousness of the atmosphere in front of him, he immediately restrained his emotions and looked at the goddess statue on the island that was starting to climb down from the pedestal.

"I never imagined that one day I would see the Statue of Liberty climb down from its pedestal."

Starting from the resurrection of the Statue of the Goddess, every move he makes is undoubtedly a test for the Avengers and even the entire citizens of New York.

Pulling back his energy after finally running away, Falcon looked at the statue of the goddess who was moving faster and faster, and his originally dark expression became even darker.

"Captain, I saw some tourists staying at the head of the goddess statue."

Relying on his superhuman dynamic vision from the radioactive spider, the little spider vaguely noticed the unusual situation above the statue of the goddess, and then turned around and told Captain America what he saw.

"Everyone."

After learning about the tourists' situation from Little Spider, Steve clenched the shield in his hand and began to issue his instructions without hesitation: "I can understand everyone's shock at this moment.

However, it’s time to stop talking. There are more important tasks waiting for us now. "

"Falcon, Tony, Spider-Man, I need you to get close to the statue of the goddess and rescue the tourists who are still inside the statue. Mr. Long, Natasha and I are responsible for finding the talisman that caused the problem as quickly as possible. Solve the crisis of the resurrection of the goddess statue, as for Dr. Banner..."

After arranging the tasks of each Avengers, Steve turned to look at Banner aside: "I hope that you, doctor, can do your best to prevent the Statue of Goddess from walking out of Liberty Island."

At this moment, the only thing worth celebrating is that although the Statue of Liberty has been resurrected by the power of the spell, fortunately, the location of the statue is still some distance away from the most prosperous Manhattan in New York.

"You really gave me a big problem, Captain."

After hearing the task assigned by Steve, Banner looked up at the goddess statue on Liberty Island in the distance and smiled helplessly.

Facing this huge statue that was 46 meters high, even Banner didn't have much confidence that he could stop it.

After all, although he knew that the Hulk in his body was powerful, he had never tried to fight against something as huge as the Statue of Liberty.

Although he said this, there was no hesitation in Banner's actions.

Banner took off his shirt and jacket, took off the glasses on his nose and carefully put them into his pocket. The next second, Banner turned around and his whole body expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye. In an instant, he was thinner than before. Transformed into the Hulk.

Roar--

Released from Banner's body, Hulk raised his head and slapped his chest and roared. Then he raised his thick thigh and stepped on the ground suddenly. With the sound of the cement floor shattering, his huge body was huge. Driven by the force, he rushed toward the goddess statue in the direction of Liberty Island with an unimaginable leap.

"Has Dr. Banner always been so impatient since his transformation?"

Looking at Hulk's jumping figure and the deep holes left on the ground, Falcon withdrew his gaze and quickly put himself on the backpack in the trunk.

Press the button, and with a burst of transformation, two huge metal wings appear on the backpack.

"Huh, okay, you can do it, Tom, it's just a goddess statue."

Taking a deep breath and cheering himself up, Falcon controlled the wings on his back to slowly rise into the air, moved his body, and then flew towards the Statue of Liberty at a speed not inferior to Hulk.

"Wait for me."

Seeing the Avengers rushing out one by one, Little Spider's face suddenly showed an anxious look. Pressing the spider silk launcher in the palm of his hand, his whole body jumped into the air with a slight swing, changing the spider silk and hurried away.

"Jarvis."

Still standing in his original position, Tony looked at the people around him who were showing their magical powers and leaving, as well as the statue of the goddess on Liberty Island walking towards Manhattan step by step. There was no trace of relaxation on his face.

Compared to the other members of the Avengers, Tony's situation is undoubtedly the most complicated.

The situation of Mark43 has fully proved that [Rat Talisman] has the ability to resurrect the suit.

The resurrection of the Statue of Liberty also means that the talisman is near the Statue of Liberty. If he rashly controls the suit and rushes over at this moment, it is very likely that the suit will automatically come to life before it can fly into the air. , just like the Mark43 set in the museum.

"Jarvis, send over the new uniforms you've prepared."

Of course, although the situation is complicated, it does not mean that Tony is really willing to stand there and watch the other members of the Avengers act.

In fact, Tony didn't speak when Steve assigned the task before, which meant that he was already prepared.

"Okay, sir."

As Tony's words fell, Jarvis responded immediately.

A few seconds later, from the direction of the Stark Industries New Energy Building, a set of red and gray armor flew quickly to Tony's location on Manhattan Island.

Looking at the approaching suit, Tony moved his body, opened his arms and stepped forward. In just a few seconds, a brand new steel suit was transformed and loaded on his body.

He moved his fingers to feel the flexibility of the new suit. Compared with the previous suits, the most unique thing about the steel suit Tony was wearing at the moment was that it did not have a helmet. However, he turned his head and pressed a switch on the neck of the suit.

The next second, a translucent device similar to an astronaut's helmet appeared on Tony's face, wrapping his head tightly.

Mark47 - Astronaut.

This is a brand new suit that Tony urgently developed after he defected from the resurrection of Mark 43 in the museum. Considering the resurrection ability of the talisman, he eliminated the human characteristics of the suit as much as possible, making the whole suit look different from all previous ones. The Mark series are even more special. Just like the name Tony gave to this suit, Mark47 is not so much a suit as it is a uniform similar to that worn by astronauts in outer space.

"Hopefully, my judgment is correct."

Although, considering the power of the spell, Tony had tried his best to avoid it when making Mark 47, he was still a little worried about the upcoming battle.

After all, without being tested by the power of the talisman, he could not guarantee whether the new suit would be as unaffected by the power of the [Rat Talisman] as he thought.

Tony took a deep breath in Mark 47, and from the translucent helmet, the nervousness on his face could still be vaguely seen.

However, the next second, Tony was seen controlling his new suit to rise into the air and fly towards the island where the goddess statue was located in the distance.

…

Bang——

Falling from mid-air, Hulk's thick legs left two deep ravines on the ground and stopped his jumping.

He raised his head and looked at the huge statue of the goddess in front of him, as well as the huge shadow that shrouded it that could be said to cover the sky and the earth.

There was no trace of fear on Hulk's face. Even though he was standing in front of the Statue of Liberty, the originally huge Hulk instantly became as big as an ant, but he still opened his mouth and let out a roar, and then Waving his thick arms, he rushed towards the statue of the goddess without hesitation.

boom--

He waved his arm and hit the skirt of the goddess statue hard. However, Hulk's huge force, which can smash boulders and even armored vehicles, seemed to have no impact at all on the goddess statue. Apart from making a fairly loud sound, there was no trace left on the expression of the goddess statue.

Looking at the unharmed goddess statue in front of him, the roar in Hulk's mouth became a little louder.

In the current situation, any other member of the Avengers would have stopped their actions, or used other methods to attract the attention of the Statue of Liberty to block the opponent's actions.

However, it happened that it was Hulk who was arranged to block it.

Although, compared to when he first appeared, Hulk has been able to show some communication skills in anger.

However, most of the time, he was still filled with the endless anger in his heart. In particular, after the previous conversation between Banner and his father, Hulk was holding back a lot of anger, so seeing that his attack had no effect, Hulk's reaction was to launch More violent means of attack.

In the roar, the muscles on Hulk's body swelled a little more, and the angry emotion in the original dark green pupils rose rapidly. The thick and intricate meridians all over his body were clearly visible to the naked eye, and the blood flowed to his arms. With a deafening roar, Hulk waved his arms that were more swollen again, and turned into fists like raindrops, falling on the goddess statue in front of him.

Due to his size, even though Hulk is already huge compared to ordinary people, he still looks a bit small compared to the 46-meter Statue of Liberty.

Therefore, the only position he could attack was the skirt of the goddess statue's feet.

In a series of fierce attacks, the originally rigid skirt of the goddess statue finally showed a slight bend.

If it were said that when he was in the museum before, the Ghost Rider used his own hellfire to cause damage and achieve results when facing the resurrected dinosaur skeleton.

So, Hulk, who was blocking the Statue of Liberty at this moment, simply relied on his own strength to forcefully break the magic shrouded in the [Golden Monument of Resurrection] on the Statue of Liberty.

With the huge strength and tireless physical strength, he just left shallow fist marks on the skirt made of hard metal, and these fist marks deepened little by little with Hulk's subsequent attacks. , eventually turned into depressions one by one, appearing on the skirt of the goddess statue.

Roar--

Waving his fist, Hulk looked at the more marks appearing on the goddess statue, and the roar in his mouth became a little louder.
